The Grey

Wait for a signal

Losing faith

Stuck in the middle

And I'm searching for a way out

But six feet deep I've dug my grave now

There's no way out

I feel the salt beneath my skin

And it's boiling up again

I can't let go and I'm wearing thin

These knots in my throat coil and constrict

And it's the shortening of the days

The dark that seems to grip

All the ice that fills my veins

And this guilt that always trips

I've felt so gray and out of place

Bent out of shape, but stuck in my ways

I've been searching for the answers

Will I always be this way?

And when I call out will you answer?

Cause I've been screaming but nothing's changed

Nothing's changed

I feel the cold against my face

And it's enough to keep me sick

So I'm left with this bitter taste

A spoonful of sugar could never fix

And it's the shortening of the days

And the dark that seems to grip

Try to go and it pulls me in

I'm sick of swallowing medicine to feel something

I've felt so gray and out of place

Bent out of shape, but stuck in my ways

And I've been searching for the answers

Will I always be this way?

And when I call out will you answer?

Cause I've been screaming but nothing's changed

And It's getting harder to pretend like I'm okay,

when there's a constant reminder being drilled into my brain

I still believe in happiness and I want to find a way

But lately my whole world is being swallowed by the grey

For now there's comfort in the quiet, solitude, and rainy days

I've got my sadness to a science, all I can do is hope for change.
